Gandhi led india to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Gandhi was born on the second of October in1869, Porbander State, Kathiawar Agency, British Indian Empire. Gandhi famously led Indians in challenging the British-imposed salt tax and later in calling for the British to quit india in 1942. He was imprisoned for many years, upon many occasions, in both South Africa and India. He was educated as a lawyer in a system of rules that were different than the rules of culture that reared him. He learned how to use these outside rules in creative ways to achieve purposes that the powerful outsiders didn’t anticipate. ]]> 2017-04-10 05:09:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mathewkyled/p2wh2edjabc7/wish/165603193 mathewkyled https://padlet.com/mathewkyled/p2wh2edjabc7/wish/165604513 2017-04-10 05:27:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mathewkyled/p2wh2edjabc7/wish/165604513 mathewkyled https://padlet.com/mathewkyled/p2wh2edjabc7/wish/165604834 gandhi inspired the world with his faith in truth and justice for all mankind, He expected a better system than the unjust system he was living in.

These were the Non-Cooperation Movement. On March 12, 1930, Indian independence leader Mahatma Gandhi began a defiant march to the sea in protest of the British monopoly on salt, his boldest act of civil disobedience yet against British rule in India. Britain’s Salt Acts prohibited Indians from collecting or selling salt, a staple in the Indian diet. Citizens were forced to buy the vital mineral from the British. Defying the Salt Acts, Gandhi reasoned, would be an ingeniously simple way for many Indians to break a British law nonviolently. He declared resistance to British salt policies to be the unifying theme for his new campaign. On March 12, Gandhi set out from Sabarmati with 78 followers on a 241-mile march to the coastal town of Dandi on the Arabian Sea. Gandhi addressed large crowds, and with each passing day an increasing number of people joined the salt satyagraha. By the time they reached Dandi on April 5, Gandhi was at the head of a crowd of tens of thousands. Gandhi spoke and led prayers and early the next morning walked down to the sea to make salt.

At Dandi, thousands more followed his lead, and in the coastal cities of Bombay and Karachi, Indian nationalists led crowds of citizens in making salt. Civil disobedience broke out all across India, soon involving millions of Indians, and British authorities arrested more than 60,000 people. Gandhi himself was arrested on May 5, but the satyagraha continued without him.
